First trains on the Ferrocarril Val de Martyn Oct 2011

viaEstrecha

Spanish metre gauge in G scale (on the cheap)
Country flag
Three years on, having rebuilt the entire garden, I finally got to the stage this week when electrickery meets track and though it is far from being properly wired, it worked well enough to bring a few locos and wagons out of hibernation. Happy bunny time. :bigsmile:

Now to press on with the branch to El Boixar, the buildings, the control panel, gardening, lights, 'Spanifying' the stock...
 
That's looking very OK.

And that Bug Mauler doesn't really look like a Bug Mauler - don't know why.
 
Very nice. It's very satisfying to get those first trains running, eh? :D
 
Lovely video :bigsmile: Your Bachmann big hauler and Aristo coaches looks very nice repainted and detailed :thumbup:
 
Really nice. Lots more pictures please! :thumbup:
 
The tender was 'cut and shut' to shorten it and the cab was butchered to make it look closer to the Baldwins sold to Spain. It runs very nicely and was a good, cheap way of getting a loco in place that was fairly authentic and didn't require much skill in the kit-bashing department.

Congrates on the track laying its lovely and smooth and your video shows the advantages of double track running i changed my mainline this year and it adds far more intrest to have two trains passing..... when you planting matures you will have something very special

Lovely - very enjoyable and some well done kit-bashing.
 
Nice work on the line and nice, realistic, look to the locos and rolling stock. Look forward to further postings:thumbup:
